Description
The Cave Skitter looks a bit like a giant praying mantis. However, its mouth is more like a starfish at the end of a small trunk. It has 2 large black eyes just above the trunk and 2 smaller black eyes further up and on the side of its head. Its body is also a little more bulbous. Its chitin is dark grey but has stripes of silver and slate helping it to blend into its cavern like surroundings. It's 6 long claw-like legs make an ominous sound when it chases its prey giving it it's moniker.
It mostly subsists on rock but has a particular taste in rare minerals and gems.
